Not that i know of. I look in lots of different because 1 of my EEs hates to go inside, she sleeps in a bush along with on of her buddies, they eat out there and everything they have done this for awhile so i always look outside in different places. Im still not sure wh they sleep outside though they dont get picked they are even at the high end of the peaking order, but i just let them because it makes them happy. I still cant believe that it has been this long Someone told me that on of there EEs didnt lay for 1 and 7 months! But if thats how long i have to wait for my pretty eggs then i will wait for it to happen

Not trying to judge or anything, but wow, I would be terrified to let my chickens sleep outside! They are so vulnerable at night when they can't see anything!

This is a good thread for figuring out what the little chicks will grow into. Takes awhile to get trough it but it is valuable info.

Haha! They are irresistible aren't they? I had the same moment of weakness last week, except I came home with 5! Don't feel too bad, these chickens are soooo addicting!

Whats wrong with you? We call that chicken math! I got 9 in the brooder and a dzn eggs on the way! And the best part is i dont even have my 'bator yet!! Yep the math has bitten me too!
Your zoe looks similar to my clyde! They are in my avatar at about week old!

Oo

OMG! What is wrong with me!?! I have 11 hens in the coop/run, 9 in the brooder and 15 eggs in the incubator.....and yet when I went to the Tractor Supply, I had to come home with these two cutie EEs. With cheeks like that, who can resist, right? And the craziest thing is that my DH was with me and let me do it!!! So introducing: Zoe And Willow

OOpps quoted the wrong post!

Here's what my bantams looked like as juveniles compared to now:
